iPad iOS 5

Apple website promo for this states you no longer need a computer to own an iPad, iPhone etc. etc. and that you can do more with your aps on your device without the need for a Mac or PC.

While that sounds great, I suspect that may apply only to their (or some) aps and not to something as complex as Logos. Perhaps a sales pitch geared to catch the unsuspecting off-guard?

What they are referring to is to set up an iPad or to update it, it needs to be connected to a computer. You will be able to use the iPad right out of the box. As to how complex Logos can be on the iPad, it's up to the app developers at Logos.

As Philana wrote, what Apple is advertising isn't that you don't need a computer... but that you don't need a computer to update the iPad. I am sure you must have misunderstood the advertisement. Currently, the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad require a computer to receive updates to the Operating System (Apps, however, can be purchased and updated wirelessly without a computer). With iOS 5, updates will be available without a wired connection to a computer.

As for Logos, the mobile device is good and getting better. In my opinion, however, it is not a replacement for the full version of Logos 4.
